I was actually working with a polish major a while back , his name rhymed with Rock, it was quite hilarious
I wish there was a setting in discord to display attached images except for one...
There is at least an option to not have them animated by default

Just block atxbyea
Then all the worlds problems go away
World peace is within our reach

How do I delete someone else's message
Carefully
heh
Damn, I'm in, thx
I know kung fu
Are your fists fast as lightning?
We should rename this channel to #meme
@last plaza you ordered avr yet?
I want to order a deepracer first
I have been training deepracer model, so far it stays on track. Running the whole thing locally without paying bezos a dime.
The car is not retail ready it seems.
Lol I meant really retail ready.
It is AI learning model class. It is a geek toy.
I don’t give much about reviews. We have it at work and been playing with it a now
No one really can use its full capabilities at the moment. Folks are hardly scratching surface. People who don’t know say it’s not enough config wise that they want more cameras and sensors.
The real meat of it is in the ML training. Not the car itself
Amazon must have thought this is cool 4 years ago. https://youtu.be/BBwEF6WBUQs 😃
They officially only released it in 2018 reInvent.
The goal is to master reinforced learning. That’s all. When you have the toy at hand, it makes it easier and fun.
Sounds like fun indeed.
Sounds like having a small child
@dull chasm I know you been digging deep into 3080. I am wondering if it can output 1 HDMI on display and another HDMI on audio.
I want to try that but need to buy cable to try
Example display shield but play Chromecast audio.
Handy Dandy Movie Input
i was thinking kinda same but main listening area with hdmi audio in second zone
That I do now.
yea i didnt think that was too tough
Onkyo does that easy havent tried on the yamaha yet
The only way I found was running zone 4 HDMI out. But don't want to run another cat5 to TV.
you do any of the network to hdmi stuff
Uses to but drowns the network. Now use direct HDMI 4k to cat5
thats what i meant .... monoprice?
No they are not that great. Looses sync on start up.
At least the ones I tried.
My AV gear is roughly 160ft from TV's
damn so what are you using
damn whats that run ya
And the 660 for main 4:4:4, I think 400 or 500. Got mine for free, buddy does ARC for them 😄
4:4:4 over cat. That seems hardcore
Yep
aint you special ^^^ I dont think i can keep up with ya
Are you running it to a blackmagic io :D
oh you can send equipment and i can help test 🤣 @tidal bronze
I'm pretty sure your eyes can't tell the difference between 444 and 422
dont be hating ^^^^^
@tidal bronze hell i am already at 10k in audo and your some of the blame 🤣
BTW some of the Amazon 4:4:4 stuff works great. You need a wifi switch to power cycle them when sync goes bonkers.
Routing hdmi over the house is so 2004
not at his level you have no idea
forbidden topic does central control
lol he has a sub bigger than most peoples cars
Do you really want to watch the same video in sync in 5 different rooms simultaneously
yep
@hushed basalt it's not for everyone. For me it's mainly aesthetics. I don't like anything in the house. I don't even have a single UI to HA.
Plus I don't believe in soundbars, tv audio etc. 😄
^^^^^^^
@tidal bronze thats it .....i am moving in
man i know its prolly my imagination ....the bi amp made a huge diff in soundstage ...i did it while wife was gone and she came home asking what i did to make the speakers come alive ..... I truly dont believe it should be be better but it did
room acoustics ...something made a diff
Hey if you can bi-amp why not.
Here I am with TV speakers
right ....it almost seems the Kliscph were starving a little ...sublte bass during tv seems to be the biggest diff
@hushed basalt step up my friend
Ehh I can't use most amps
I need a down mixed stereo out of some sort for my wifes hearing aid transmitter
@tidal bronze have you thought of going to seperates like https://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-CX-A5100-MusicCast-Preamplifier-Bluetooth/dp/B012UJZWF6
@hushed basalt oh sorry ....i didnt know
Most tvs can put out ARC or toslink
But not both
There are HDMI passthrough de embedders but it's a crapshoot of standards and compatibility
Are you trying to downmix 5.1 or stereo?
Guess you are trying to get center channel into stereo?
Yep, I would get AVR separate outs and run it via a mini mixer, they are cheap. ARC to AVR
Mix center/left/right and you can dial it in as well to your wife's liking.
Cheers. Food for thought
My wifes brother is back of house for an internationally touring band, so he probably has spare mixers coming out of his ears
There you go
I'm pretty musically agnostic
I couldn't name you a single band in a top 100
Other than Billie Eilish but that doesn't count
She has a higher view rate/day than frozen let it go
Top100 sucks anyway
Hardly anything worth listening to
Only reason they are top100 is usually brand name / popularity of artist in social media
Chill step, classical and blues for me.
And those you will never see in the traditional top 100 😛
nopes
Just looked up the current top 100, looks like the same acts turn up repeatedly...
Exactly
I do recognise a few of the acts though, there's even some I've listened to 😄
Well from the top 100 Dance Monkey is an exception 🙂 Brits still can make some cool shit.
The same meaningless music that the masses hype in media and fashion
For the most part 😛
But maybe I'm different, I don't care what influencer #1 or celebrity #2 is wearing on a given day 🤷
Not what the heck their thoughts on the environment is 😛
And that's why you will never have 40k followers on instagram
Had to check, 197 
ssh root@instagram.com
Instagram... I think I may have an account ...
well... I wished I never looked in here... it is full of disappointment
Oh yes, I have a Facebark account, so of course I have an Instagram account 🤷
you know a place has gone to hell when instagram accounts are the topic
Chelsea and Ryan Reynolds, pretty epic on insta
He is nuts
Yeah, but he's bonkers - I love seeing the banter between Wolverine and Deadpool 😛
Who is Chelsea
Chelsea Handler, conversations with her dogs makes it so worthwhile
Area of London I think 🤔
This guy
Ahoy Governor
Yeah, it's on my watch list
The wife asked for captions yesterday though 😂
Ah, you should see if you can watch Taggart then
Old police procedural, set around Glasgow
😂
I find scots pretty easy to understand
@brisk glen i am with ya on the instragram and facebook stuff ....i do none of the above
@hushed basalt Clearly you've never talked to a drunk Glaswegian... 😛
I check facebook... once every 2-3 months and it still does not have my location after 4 years
You guys have Facebook?
not i
Not i
I
@clear ferry what's your instagram ? Want to check out those videos with your 'straight fit' jeans
Or is it hyper stretch ?
why does discord keep crashing 0.0
@brisk glen it does not
it has crashed 3 times on me and relaunched itself
You need to reboot the planet
or splashtop streamer... looks like its leaking ram again
@brisk glen did you power cycle the modem?
I rebooted my PC yesterday after explorer.exe had leaked ~40Gb of memory. And it's like a week old installation. Gotta love Windows.
I never noticed the leak till I checked activity monitor
having a lot of ram helps one ignore things 😛
Windows doesn't really tell anywhere what's actually taking memory which makes it hard to troubleshoot these problems. The only way to tell it was explorer.exe was to check the "handles" number in task manager details
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PYgt4qMA7A one of those epic ones!
Someone just called me from a satellite phone
That sounds like a lot of effort for spam
+882 16 
Appears to be UAE
Anyone knows electricity and all that? I'm swapping out mr16 spotlights with gu10 spots. I removed the transformator from mr16 and installed gu10 Mount. It has in Earth. But there is no esrtj wire. Should it work at all without it?
Pictures here: https://imgur.com/a/fx0ZJ2h
Looks like off could be off and on is on. I can see that with my technical knowledge
ground is chasis ...if you dont uderstand that prolly not good to rewire lights
🤔 probably. But, it should work or not at all?
Just want to know if it's possible I got a bad one, or if I did it completely wrong
a nuertal and hot is required to complete a ac circuit ....ground is ...well to ground the chassis of the componet or cabinet
a nuetral can be mixed with ground ....sometimes ok but mostly a no no
So yeah, it should work then. Hmm
Pls get a pro... I don’t want to see a baconized OlofL
😄
That looks like a bathroom @nova patio. Seriously - call an electrician.
@tidal bronze https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PYgt4qMA7A one of those epic ones!
I heard this one before, fucking hilarious 🤣
Guess it's safe to be nice to everyone 😉
somehow I don't think "bullies" are quite the same these days as they were a few decades ago lol
but then again who knows, the bullies on back to the future weren't much different lol
What a comeback story 😂 He goes this is the best day of my life. Ahh ha ha
Dude sounded cool till he mentioned krav maga 😜
I can't remember how long ago I heard it but that is kind of old lol
I think 2 years
that's weird there has to be another one then cause I've heard one of these that was exactly like this alot longer than 2 years ago lol
lol people are stupid
why make plans with someone, follow up 3 times in a week, and then bail last second saying you hurt your back really bad, and then IMMEDIATELY post on FB about all the things you're doing
Why look at FB in the first place?
Go punch them in the face.
lol i just don't get it... just say "i wanted to do something else" lol
coronavirus makes people do weird things anymore. just how it is anymore
paranoia makes people do weird things
This is just the latest thing to be paranoid about
Lol Facebook
We're all gonna diieeee
Well, yes
I'd comment we can but hope, but that would make me sound heartless. In reality immortality would be painful...
I hope so
I would not like to be the face of bo
That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die
Have you seen The Man from Earth
I have not
It's interesting
He's basically a caveman who got genetically lucky and has perfect regeneration
And lives for 12000 years and counting
This one?
Yep
Acting from some characters is a bit hit and miss
And the whole movie is people talking in one room. A bit like 12 angry men
He's one of the good ones haha
There is a sequel it seems
The rest of the support characters are defintely a bargain bin deal
I don't think people acknowledge the sequel
Probably one of my favourite movies ever
It's good
I feel like I've read the book too
I feel like the book was quite short
But good
Interesting
Yes, yes I am
exception raised
[citation needed]
living forever would kind of suck
Forever, maybe
But imagine going out on ships leaving the galaxy
Seeing us construct dyson swarms. Populating the universe
yea i don't see us going toward a star trek type of society but more of a elysium route lol
Those people are still going to want to spread out
Even if it's in 100 years or 10000
the rich will leave, the rest of us will be left here on earth
Bezos wants that
It will take another 200 years at least. We won’t be alive. Why bother!
Bezos will be long dead too
Unless amazon guys cryogenically freeze him - like in Austin Powers movie 😊
we are partially there
the cryogen freeze thing
don't think they have a real means of testing life stretching yet but the ability to freeze someone and unthaw them we can do lol
Then we should bring back Walt Disney and show him how much money they made and put him back in the freezer 🤣
My daughter can now reach all parts of the coffee table :(
No more safe space for drinks
It’s only a matter of time...
@steel urchin how's your doorbell camera been running?
That was the doorbell of the century 😂
I would be very reluctant to press that one.
it's weird how movies get treated differently when releasing in different countries. I don't mean like how some movies need to be edited for graphic violence or whatever but as in like netflix US and netflix UK are two diffrent things. a movie may never be released for the US version that is for the UK version ect
mine is is still chugging along. not quite it's worth but still chugging
currently my 20 buck wyze cam with defangs loaded on it is kicking the crap out of the doorbell cam in performance and quality
I have few wyze cams as well. Got them to test some stuff. Pretty good for price. Night time not so much.
No exir?
having issues with night vision?
@forest edge are there any good movies/series that are outside US in netflix? I can switch my vpn and watch them.
Netflix is meh now. So many low budget productions to keep eyeballs glued.
dahua starlight master race
Watching Parasite with Family. Super funny so far!
Parasite is great.
@last plaza no idea i'm US. was just reading up on MCU releases and how they get treated differently when released to streaming services based on the different countries. like the dark phoenix will be on like hulu only for US for some time yet will be on netflix for like UK and Australia. it's just weird
@rain swift dahua is evil, everytime you speak it i want to slap you lol
their stuff is awesome, sorry not sorry
You guys watch the others ?
It’s all licensing and making money globally. The streaming is a huge business across the globe
The others is an old movie
Brand New on HBO
Badass.
Goes circles around anything on Netflix.
Production quality
The others is an old movie. We watched it like a month or so ago. Is there a new series or a movie?
Series
Hmm
Lmao did I say others. Outsider. Ma badd
lmao.
Do wyze cams have automatic IR filtere
You can't really have good daytime and IR performance without a removeable IR filter
yea
they havve the ir filter as well as ir leds
so we gonna make some exceptions to the lounge rules when the elections start closing in? I mean.. we need to be able to discuss politics in here during that time lol
I only have 1 simple position.
No politics, religion. Period. Things can get ugly quickly.
no controversial at all, this is a unicorns and rainbows zone!
Love Terry
🤣
forbidden_candidate
lol - just watched that movie during the holidays. Love Mike Judge’s movies
Mike Judge isn't good at finishing though
The office space ending was good!
Silicon Valley, Office Space, Idiocracy. Great starts weak finishes
Office space got pretty meh towards the end
Excluding Melvin
swingline stapler
Not a big fan of king of the jungle though
lol
Corporate developers probably not too much different
Less tie and white collar.
And distracting open plan offices
corporate cringe exists now and then
We need Bravis and Butthead emojis here 😊
Yes
First time I heard the word cornholio when watching B&B.
I am the great cornholio. I need TP for my bunghole. lol
lol grew up loving that cartoon on mtv
I even bought my friend this beavis and butthead thing that was this plastic thing of the two of them sitting on their couch and it had a ir receiver so you placed it ontop the tv or whatever and when you used your tv remote they would make random quotes or sounds lol
Good ol’ MTV!
on another note, do any of you use dark sky? is the paid add on the phone worth it? Like when it says it's going to rain is it usually pretty on? I'm thinking about doing some things based off the weather info they give.

@rain swift i got the paid app. Not worth it.
Good to know
Is it worth trying to do automations off of like, enable outside Motion lights with cloud cover?
Or maybe it would be fun to get some kind of little weather station I can have on the porch plugged into the outlet on the wall
@last plaza get that cold out
This hue sync box is pricey but I'm not going lie, the videos look cool as hell.
https://www2.meethue.com/en-us/p/hue-play-hdmi-sync-box-/046677555221
Having all of the lights synced up with a movie or TV show would be sweet
yeah that thing is stupid expensive
I think the bigger problem is that it's probably not compatibel with deconz or zigbee2mqtt
I've already got the hub..
@brisk glen weren't you needing help with this? https://youtu.be/B2wAJ5FLOYw lol
I thought you tried to create a kuber cluster at the start then gave up on it?
well i hear garage sales are good for that
yes, it is pricey
but there's no way to do it with just random bulbs and stuff unless you're a programmer and write your own software lol
There were some third party hardware solutions,but they were just as pricey
@clear ferry B1M is that the name of that expensive highway they building there or just the name of the stupid youtube channel that was dedicated to showing it?
Wtf?
hmm lemme find it
I have no idea what you are talking about 😂
must been the name of the channel and not the highway lol
was something about some super long highway that will traverse the entire coast of norway going under ground and above ext
Doing a dist upgrade of tumbleweed, 1056 packages 
suppose to be some massive expesnivve thing
Yeah, that will replace 20 ferries or something
ah yea it's the name of the channel. I thought it was the name of the highway lol https://youtu.be/HCT-FurFVLQ
that was 2018, how far have that got? lol
that first stretch the 16 mile undersea tunnel is something i'd like to see lol
No idea, can't see any news articles about it being done
suppose to be like over 600miles long and take like over 20 hours to travel from end to end. and if they do evven half of the crazy crap that video talks about it it will be one of the most interesting highways to travel on lol
Yeah, when I moved South I drove through Sweden, because roads are better there with no coast
And it still took 22 hours 
So amd is on the rise in desktops in Europe
Just because of cpu shortages at Intel though 😛
Lol nice protective measure
Public trading is bizarre to me
That someone with a lot of money can just eat your company
Muuuuurica for you
Looked like a severed foot in a fish tank
If I had to guess edible I would have said salmon
Feet are edible

damn, that's a long rant
he is not wrong 🤣
@tidal bronze I love that Irish Whiskey. I only drink when it is freezing cold.
@rain swift darkaky is good for weather notifications. The accuracy is pretty good. I always rely on multiple sources when it comes to weather.
@last plaza ever tried Scottish peat whisky? Like lagavulin or Laphroaig ?
I enjoy those a lot
Lag is good
Aye, I enjoy all of them
The Japanese make good whisky too, just copies of Scottish methods
Now I am more into Japanese single malts. Yamakazi on the top
Yikes, rum
That one is quite good
We use rum to bake apple cakes only 😛
Except the diplomatico, I enjoy that one
This one is very good with chocolate cakes
Chartreuse that is
Oban is great as well.
My sister bought me this in Japan, waiting to try it out
Old Japanese take out?
I stopped drinking beer now. It’s been 3+months. Mostly red wine or whiskey/vodka.
Only do beer few days of summer.
Not because I like beer but love https://g.co/kgs/XVnBrj
Michelada 😋
I have to do some research on where I get the best Michelada here in Ohio.
Pretty sure you like it extra spicy 😉
Yup! 😊
Most of the crab places here offer them, best tasting is with Modelo
Modelo is good! I always ask Mexicans here where they go out to eat and almost every one recommended one restaurant locally. We go there almost every week. Food is fantastic and lots of drink choices.
Hole in the wall type and taco trucks 🙂
@last plaza what weather sources do you rely on?
I use https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/weather/, https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/weather.darksky/ and openUV mostly with HA. Our phones have all kinds of weather apps
@last plaza use vscode?
yup
Any tips on settings sync across multiple installations, excluding the git method.
what are you trying to do?
vscode settings, exts, themes etc syncing across multiple installations.
multiple installations of vscode across machines?
yes
ah.... typically all settings are stored in .vscode folder
there is a way to export all packages and make a bundle and deploy - not very user friendly
devcontainer && git ♥️
Is Tinkerer the baldy one with the belly, or the one who looks like Muta from SomeOrdinaryGamers?
Yes
Lol
Any day with hair is was a good hair day...
I still have all my hair, just that over half of it is now white insteado black :/
Hair doesn't stop growing as you get older, it just changes direction - instead of out your head, it comes out your nostrils, your ears, and your eyebrows look like librarians
If only, a can't get hair to grow much anywhere, no beard either 
That's what happens when your body wash is switched for hair remover 😉
He waxes... Just enjoy that image for a moment
I did once in 2001 on a speck on my leg
The hair has yet to return
That is how bad of hair growth I have 
Can I have your hairdryer?
Anyone have some LED strips and can speak to the brightness difference between a 30pixel/M strip and a 144pixel/M strip?
Does 144pixels just allow for more smooth color transitions, or is it noticably brighter?
#diy-archived would be the place to ask I suspect
Ok, I'll take the question there. Thanks :)
my wireguard keys are 44 chars... is that normal? how can i define a key length?
Share your keys and we'll tell you 😛

how hard is it to find the right ip with 44chars and udp though
Given that they appear to be Base64 encoded, I'd say 44 is normal
https://www.wireguard.com/protocol/ is worth a read
thanks
hey, where is the nice banner in our channel? it was there at some point:)
Insufficient boosts

Here , try this:

On monitor 3, duh
how much is it to boost?
Or monitor 4 or five 
I used to have five

Hey any recommendations for wireless security cams in the Uk?
@clear ferry you sure?
No, which is why I said probably 
😛
Watch it or I'll send you more chocolate @dull chasm

Hey it was good but watching my figure ..
🤣
As long as I'm not balloon Luffy I'm happy
I didn't think it was possible to use politically correct and atxbyea together in context with a straight face
i didnt say i wasnt cracking up
HR probably use atx as the guy in the 'before' scenario

30 degrees with rain today
55+ and sunny today 😍
It is overcast and shitty outside.
Every time an ammurican tells me the temperature I just assume they're living on mars
we may as well be. god knows companies and governments treat us like we're on mars
55 degrees fahrenheit = 12.78 degrees celsius!
when we go to mars, it is easy for us 😛
anyone know what time format this is? 1582439220, it's what the dark sky sensor gives you.
Phone number, have you tried calling it?
looks like unix timestamp
@rain swift {{ 1582439220 | timestamp_local }} gives 2020-02-23 01:27:00
I want to have a simple display to see a few things at a glance for HA.. I've seen a lot of tablets stuck on the wall, is there any other solution? Maybe a bit more integrated/"nicer"?
Google Hub?
oooooo
Can it wallmount?
I guess there's some aftermarket ones. I might take a look, thx
I do have an old laptop as well...
Maybe a bit more integrated/"nicer"?
I do have an old laptop as well...
that kind of made me chuckle lol
🙂 Well, rip out the screen and do some sort of magic mirror thing.
Okay that works
Got my lock automation done so when the wife forgets to lock them it'll lock 8 minutes later. The only setting on these ones for autolock is 30 seconds... can get annoying and "smashy" when doing stuff like groceries.
Hi, I'm new to homeassistant. I'm trying to setup the emulated how bridge. I see that I have to open up port80, using sudo setcap.......... Where do I enter this command? In the configuration.yaml?
@golden steeple #integrations-archived
Cool thanks
it is available in HA
Specially since it's based off gmt+1
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/time_date/ there is an option beat in there
I wouldn't imagine anyone using it
nope
out since 98 and i never heard of it lol
When does unix overflow
It's a good thing big corporations don't leave mandatory upgrades to the last minute, or use decades old legacy systems
uh
or use decades old legacy systems
I know a few that still had tape reels in use into the early 2000's lol
😂
ok where the heck is @wet pilot ? been mia for too long! you cannot escape! you cannot be free!
O.o
thought we wouldn't notice you trying to slip away hmm?
There is nothing more important than the HA discord, HA is life.
@last plaza speaking of unix timestamps, who else is ready for 2k38?
I am.
Is HA 64bit
I believe it comes both ways
Anyone used price guarantee protection from credit cards?
wait, nvm, my card discontinued that benfit.....
must be losing money from that....
@scenic radish they fixed that already by adding a 64bit clock to 32bit interpreters I believe
time_t or whatever
😅
Wikipedia says it is not a perfect solution though 
Then we all must panic

The last few and next few weeks I have military stuff for atleast twice a week, it is so nice to not have a phone or email all day for a few days a week, I can work on peace 
the military in norway must be pretty close to like our school crossing guards lol

@next ginkgo #integrations-archived
hi all!
Guys, I am looking for someone who can help me.
I am having 2*4 load cells connected to 2 hx711 boards. I would like to read the value from both hx711, sum them and publish on mqtt so I can use in HASS. (Bed occupancy sensor in kgs)
I would like to use only one esp based device, I have a spare D1 mini.
Can you suggest what firmware to look at? As I understood, tasmota can handle only one hx711 at the time (the only one, I have experience with…)
Can you suggest any “easy” solution? I am not looking into writing my own FW.
Or
maybe the proper channel to ask my question?
Thank you 🙂
HA related? Forbidden here.
So
The tiler guy came in today. He did the kitchen work. He unplugged the gas line, but not properly.
Now theres a smell of gas.
Sounds like he didn't turn off the stop
He apparantly detached it
And now atached it without redoing the seal
but i bought a fresh line, so i didnt need to do the seal. Now that's broken
don't light a cigarette.
fix it quick!
You also need a gas sensor
dammit, don't make me buy another thing skala
never let developers manage their own servers, what a cluster.
why do different servers have different local admin logins and some have ssh keys but different ones have different keys
then my boss says patch all these boxes, and they keep spinning up new ones in AWS lol
I'm so glad we don't use gas in most of Europe 😛
I don't have gas either
We currently do in the UK, at least when you're not out in the sticks
They're talking about phasing that out, but that's going to be a long road
@clever mortar but you guys are floating away from Europe towards the muuricans 😛
I think we're being sucked into the polar vortex...
😂
yeah I'm sorry, we don't want ya, stay in europe lol
in fact we have a lot of people you can have
🙂

i like my gas appliances
makes me feel like a badass when i light a fire with minimal effort

saw a video on youtube where they were shooting a motorcycle scene with carrie while keanu rode bitch and she looked old enough to be his mother lol
Apparently she learned how to ride a bike for that scene in matrix 2. Specifically on that bike
Which is pretty nuts. That amount of power is not easy to learn on
Bikes are just combustion engines with wheels.
yea but she's 6ft so that made it alot easier lol
Don't know why someone would ride them :D
ride what? motorcycles?
Speaking of riding, anyone here have an eBike? Any good recommendations?
they don't make an e bike worth getting yet
Looking at electric xp - 500w pas
motorcycles i assume
Most people assume bicycles
Electric bikes. Not motor bikes 😊
Bicycles... HD releasing electric motor bikes starting at $45K. Insane!
I haven't seen a single electric motorcycle worth it's price tag yet nor last long enough to even consider getting if money was no issue
Agree. They are not there yet. Unless Tesla starts to make one.
Better than before, but long way to go. I don’t have any complaints with my T-3. Have had it for more than 2 years.
But thats a car
The weight/cost of a battery can be buried in a car easier than a bike
Yes. Al it has is battery and a powerful cpu with screen. I’m sure they can put the same in a bike.
True on the weight!
I think gasoline has about 8 x more usable energy/litre than a lion battery
So you need 8 x the volume of an equivalent gas tank for the same usable energy
Let alone weight
Imagine making the gas tank on your bike 8 times bigger
one day
With a 40kg rider downhill in low pressure atmosphere at 40kmh
for back and forth from work ect it's fine and all
but the second you actually want to go anywhere your boned lol
Motorbikes aren’t there yet. Will take a few more years.
Yeah but people who buy HDs want to cruise around
Our battery tech isn't showing any breakthroughs on the horizon
Definitely you can’t do the cross country trips on those 😂
Batteries/long range is a real challenge
The batteries in a t3 weigh 480kg
That's like 400 litres of gasoline
Not sure what you are comparing for and where you are getting at. It is not always weight to weight comparison
@tidal bronze I have been busy with wine tasting lately
Oh my.
lol
Keeping track of which ones I like, so I can buy more. I got my own scoring system.
Contains alcohol? 10/10
I am into port these days. Was in Porto and now glued to them.
Yep. I’m hooked to Swiss cheese too! Specially gruyere
Ooh! Nice!
I got a project this summer to build a wine rack 😎
The top pic is California?
I was going to say it doesn’t look like the USA looking at the electric poles
Can fly all day. Was enjoying it a lot. 😄
Nice drone pics
@scenic radish they are not sparkling grape juice bottles. They have alcohol in it.. 😆
Ah! Not all of them are 10/10. Only three of them are really smooth!
Are you planning on making 2 racks 😜
I found out the only wine I like is sparkling wine lol
I have never had wines before. Only since last November I started drinking them. Still acquiring taste. Mostly red wines though
More of a beer guy
@tidal bronze yes. Two racks - one on left and one on right 😝
@scenic radish I’ve been a faithful beer guy for decades. Slowly switching..
Will do!
Ah, just like my switch from FORBIDDEN TOPIC to FORBIDDEN TOPIC Core
All about that sangria boi
With wine, it is all about the food that goes with it. Never had that problem with beer 😂
Pimm's much better than Sangria @scenic radish
Hmm good to know
I love Long Island ice tea from Applebee’s. That’s best!
well, now i want wine lol
Lol
need to hit up Paso Robles soon...lots of fun out there
Paso Robles is nice @shy comet. You should check out French laundry
I know you are a sucker for meet 😄
ah up by Napa?
i havent been there in a long time
It's worth the few months wait for reservations and the drive.
I’m gonna make a trip to Cali just to try out wine and food someday.
Hot take: in 'n' out is overrated
lol
The hottest of takes perhaps
lol
idk i love in n out
like if im not in LA for a few weeks its usually the first stop
@last plaza you have to.
road trips always include in n out
Oh don't get me wrong, it's good. Just not the greatest IMO
Yep animal fries
ive treid the competition like 5 guys and Sonic...to me they dont compare
They are shit.
the biggest in n out burger ive seen is a 10x10 LOL
Good lord
its crazy how much u can order from secret menu there
yea it filled up the entire take out tray LOL
Otherwise known as "the quadruple bypass"
You know what's funny the size reduction ok the double double from late 90's to now. 😜
I N F L A T I O N
oh yea lol
@last plaza few days at my place is a must. 😀
when u order the doggie patty...its even smaller
Yep.
@tidal bronze as long as you order spicy food 😆
All day! Not at your level but I ain't going to stop you from making any dish a firestarter.
lol
Does anyone know about android auto dashes
how spicey are we talking here?
I want to replace the POS head unit in my car with something with android auto and high brightness
like burn your mouth and stomach?
@shy comet battery acid level 😊
It's $1000 fine here touching your phone while driving
hahahhaha
Pioneer and Kenwood both make units iirc
theres also a raspberry pi version too if you want to do DIY
Do you think it's best to get a double din bracket
That's the easiest
I assume "factory fit" chinese android auto units would be a crapshoot
They don't usually do Android auto
Why not use Bluetooth?
I'm not sure if steering wheel controls snd reverse camera is pretty seamless
Bluetooth is just audio
Voice activated and have your emails and texts read you out loud
I need something to control google maps etc
Buy a better car? 😭
lol
I'm not sure if anyone knows which units have the most nits
Need like 1500 nits where I live
Get a samsung 🙂
@shy comet what are you looking for next?
@hushed basalt probably wnat to find blogs like this one https://www.androidauthority.com/best-android-auto-head-units-791179/
@last plaza no idea but android auto will probably be a requirement
Most now support both buy default.
Ok.. I need to buy one for my kid soon - like in 6 months or so. I am looking too
My head unit is so bad
yea im glad gps navigation is becomign a standard now
The right 1/4 of the touch screen doesn't work
the question is do i stick with Acura or go with something else
my currenet car is a TSX
Audi A4 is like $41K. Not bad.
Plus the mounting has no shroud and is angled upwards which doesn't help
I just need a reason
Useless in sun
Plus no auto brightness. So blinding at night and dull during the day
Eww! Not seen that dashboard a while now
Toyota?
Except the rental I did 3 months ago
2012 hyundai ix35
Got something again Koreans? :P
We don't get station wagons here :'(
i30N would be a done deal
I miss station wagons.
Hate SUVs
Can't offroad and can't carry anything in the back
A stupid hybrid that serves no real purpose. Like a netbook
We get the Veloster N here which is a dumber version of that
Makes for a decent TCR car though
I always scroll up and read and miss good conversations. Wine, hot food......
Ugh the velosturd
It's an ugly car but the N variant is worth a look
@wet pilot when you have the second kid, you will need an suv or a mini van 😊
Already have a Mazda CX-5 as the main car
I need to sell my minivan. It has served its purpose.
@hushed basalt there should plenty of older station wagons there to pick from
lol minivan
Got the one with the 2.5T though so it doesn't suck
Brakes are shit though
And if it wasn't a lease I'd swap them out and lower it a couple of inches
mommobiles
Heh the thing has the same HP and 40 more Twisties than my focus st did and it's only 300 lbs heavier. Also AWD
Egg vans
You can’t even roll rear windows in those models
That was our car when we had kids
My family had the model before
@green inlet there is a better way to revealing your age 😊
But the shorty model
Good ole dodge caravan
so glad minivans are phasing out
3 year lease. Wife dropped it off the exact day the lease was over
Maybe even a day early
Good riddance!
@forest edge toyotas last station wagon was from 2005
She told me if I ever bought her another mini van she would drive it into the first pole she saw after leaving the lot
Subaru has there outbacks but newer models are hot garbage
Skoda has some but euros are trash :D
outbacks aren't bad
@green inlet I don’t blame her!
granted they aren't what they use to be but they aren't bad
Skala, have purchased an aerator
No. I just have the guy come and do it every fall
Lmao, for wine
lol 😂😂😂
Turns a $5 bottle into a $10 bottle
grape juice talk
Wine or your yard?
Wine
Think it mimics breathing
@forest edge fermented grape juice for the record.
Did not know it. Will look into it.
never acquired the taste for wine
I need to get my priorities right. Build wine racks and get an aerator!
When you spend time in California, you have to drink wine.
becoming a wino is mandatory? lol
@forest edge same here. Have been a beer drinker for about 25+ years. Hated wine before
How do you tell difference between cheap wine and expensive wine?
@last plaza with age our taste buds dull and change, that's how your able to tolerate it now lol
I don’t. I buy cheap wine and aerate it🤣
@forest edge are you calling shots and calling me old? 🤣🤣🤣
just stating facts lol
I never found a cab I didn’t like
lol. I am not that old. I started drinking when I was 5 😝
Holden calais tourer 2018 is actually very nice
Not sure what reliability is like
Especially since holden is dead in Australia
@green inlet need to look into aerator. Any links?
well you got an early start at killing those taste buds through alcohol chemical burning lol
I still love beer! I am not sure how I am going to survive summer without beer to be honest
Vinturi, the Essential Wine Aerator, creates better bouquet, improved flavors and mouth feel, and smoother finish. Great gift for wine lovers.
Wine is fine when it shifty outside and I can’t step outside without winter wear
yea I'd never trade beer for anything else
@forest edge that has been my mantra for years!
for the last 20+ years I drank beer at every holiday table while everyone else drank wine lol
Beer bloats me
had it's perks, always had my beer that noone else touched lol
Trick is finding right wine...
even if you found the "right wine" one day your gonna realize that one bottle costs you more than a few cases of the "right beer" and doesn't last as long lol
@green inlet it’s called beer belly. It is permanent. Bloating is temporary
I went through a cider phase also
@forest edge but you don’t need to drink 2 liters when you get the same outcome with 2 glasses 😝
unless you drink Heineken
Higher alcohol percentage
Yea well a bottle of red will knock you on your proverbial arse
Heineken doesn’t have lot of alcohol percent either
was talking about cost to wine lol
Same cost. No major diff
is it roo made?
Another reason to visit down under
A bottle of jack daniels no.7 is about $40 for 700ml
20 standard drinks
A equivalent grade of wine could be $10-$15
And has about 6.5 standard drinks
So it's still a lot cheaper to get trashed off wine than spirits
Plus premixed is even worse
Nah it's all about that Natty light
24 x 330ml of strongbow could be $60-$65
That’s about right. I did the math 😊
Also I know one oz is about 30mL, are u proud of me?
Of course!!!
🥳
@last plaza this served us well as kids 🤣
$75 Australian dollars = ~$50 usd
Currency conversions aren't always the ideal picture
@dull chasm is that NyQuil equivalent? 🤣
$75 aud was about $85 usd not that long ago
yep
